T0:00 - Cut the tan powder into a line and snort it. I was expecting the nightmares of the other members of this family I had the displeasure of consuming (DPT and 4-HO-DPT), where large piles of the chalky and retchingly bitter stinging powder had to be sucked down. Those ones dosed in the 70-100 mg range.

Summary
4-AcO-DPT is a research chemical tryptamine first reported around 2012 that acts as a prodrug to 4-HO-DPT through rapid de-acetylation. User reports indicate relatively poor oral bioavailability; intranasal or rectal routes produce shorter but more efficient experiences at roughly half oral doses, though insufflation can cause sharp stinging. The compound produces colorful, fast-moving visuals with pronounced physical stimulation including tremor, jaw tension, and visceral body load, yet comparatively less mystical depth than classic psychedelics.
Perspectives
“This substance is miraculously mentally stimulating. It feels as though it has boundless potential for introspection, therapy, learning, and analytical thinking.”

The PsychonautWiki Journal logging app doesn't include every substance. To track 4-AcO-DPT there, start adding an ingestion, search for the name, and choose to add it as a custom substance. Paste these values:

Start low, go slow, and test your substances.
Tip: for quicker logging you can also add a Custom Unit in the app, e.g. common dose ~ 20 mg (Insufflated).
The app keeps custom substances simple, so the full dose ranges live in the description text above. Ranges are harm-reduction guidance, not a prescription.

Setting: a wilderness trail in the Southwestern U.S., on a gorgeous January afternoon. 20 milligrams 4-AcO-DPT fumarate is insufflated. Within minutes, I can feel an indescribable, perhaps slightly dissociative sensation creeping through my body, and I'm beginning to clearly disconnect from sobriety in a somewhat famil...
